[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 525501, member: 6277"] Unless you plan of doing the proper post processing you would be better off shooting in JPEG Fine Large. The first thing I always ask is "Have you fine tuned the Lenses yet?" the better the camera the more important doing that becomes. Make sure when you do it you do it correctly. Goggle it and follow the directions completely for the method you pick. This is not something to just play with. You will not hurt the camera by misadjustment since you can always just turn it off but you can make it look worse. As far as shutter speed is concerned with the D7100 there is a great built in that handles that. In the Auto ISO section you can set the minimum shutter speed. Set it on AUTO and one more right click and you will be able to set the sensitivity. Set it on the default middle section. it looks at the length of the lens and where the zoom is and set the appropriate shutter speed. Set the ISO on 100 with a Max of where ever you are comfortable but generally ISO 800 does a pretty good job. You can play with that top number to suit what you like to shoot at. The shutter speed follows the "Reciprocal Rule" and does compensate for the camera being a DX camera. I used that all the time and it really does a great job. You can use the camera with the VR on or off that is up to you but if you are on a tripod make sure the VR is turned OFF [h=1][/h] [/QUOTE]
